Yields were for the most part bad, said Tom Tunnell, executive director of Kansas Grain and Feed Assn.

But the good news is that the corn crops are showing very little aflatoxin, a toxin caused by drought conditions that limits which animals can be fed the grain, Tunnell said. If the toxin levels are too high, the corn cannot be fed to some livestock.

Other crops also are showing the effects of drought, but for many it is too early in the harvest to know how badly the crops are hurt.

Only 3 percent of the soybean acres have been harvested in the state, KASS reported.

Not enough soybeans have been harvested to find out whether there is a problem in the state with so-called green beans, a condition which occurs when there is not enough moisture for the beans to properly mature, Tunnell said.
